CHRIS BROWN has performed live for the first time since he was found guilty of assaulting Rihanna.
He took to the stage with rapper Lil' Wayne at the Verizon Wireless Amphitheatre in Virginia Beach, Virginia last night, for the latest date in the America's Most Wanted tour.
MTV News reported that he came on towards the end of Lil' Wayne's set and replaced injured rapper Drake on the track 'Every Girl'.
He paid tribute to Michael Jackson by moonwalking and dancing across the stage to Billie Jean while Lil' Wayne asked fans to cheer "for the new Michael".
The appearance marked Brown's first public performance since he received five years' probation and 120 hours of community service in a plea deal following the allegations that he attacked Rihanna.
Representatives for Brown have yet to comment about whether he will be joining the tour full-time as a replacement for Drake, who was forced to undergo surgery after injuring his knee on Friday.
